The name may not roll off the tongue, but when a wristwatch has this many technically impressive functions tucked inside a handsome package, we’re not going to quibble. Not only does the complicated Ceratanium model feature a chronograph, it’s also equipped with a perpetual calendar—and not just any perpetual calendar, but a crown-operated digital version that displays the date and the month on large golden discs at 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock, a throwback to IWC’s 1880s heyday, when the company produced Pallweber pocket watches that displayed the hours and minutes in a digital format using single digits.
